Ben Nicholson (1894-1962) was "one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century, who first came to international prominence with his famous 'white reliefs' of the 1930s. A pioneer of abstract art in Britain... forming close links with Picasso, Braque, Arp, Mondrian and others... This important monograph ... confirms Nicholson... as a major force in twentieth-century art, who above all was intent on communicating his joy and pleasure in the visual world." (Publisher).
